Standing Lyrics by Mark Rose

Separate

2010

[Verse 1]
And some people have everything figured out
But where's the fun in that?
Don't tell me what's coming next or how it happens
No, I'll read my life from front to back
I'd break apart for you
Divide myself in two whenever you need me to
But still, I slide

[Chorus]
I'm building up for a breakdown
Turn it up and scream, "This was supposed to be"
I'm setting up for a showdown
Turn it up and scream, "This was supposed to be"
Pick me up, put me back down
Turn it up and scream, "This was supposed to be easy"
Easy
I'm on my knees again for you

[Verse 2]
So tell me once again
How strong beginnings with great ends
We'll end up more than friends
We're slowly fading
I'd break apart for you
Divide myself in two whenever you need me to
But still, I slide

[Chorus]
I'm building up for a breakdown
Turn it up and scream, "This was supposed to be"
I'm setting up for a showdown
Turn it up and scream, "This was supposed to be"
Pick me up, put me back down
Turn it up and scream, "This was supposed to be easy"
Easy

[Bridge]
I'm on my knees again for you
And I should standing
I should be standing

[Chorus]
I'm building up for a breakdown
Turn it up and scream, "This was supposed to be"
I'm setting up for a showdown
Turn it up and scream, "This was supposed to be"
Pick me up, put me back down
Turn it up and scream, "This was supposed to be easy"
Easy

[Ending]
I'm on my knees again for you
And I should be standing
I should be standing
I'm on my knees again for you
And I should be standing
I should be standing
